Always and Forever

15 - Happy Birthday

Indiana walked into her dark house. All the lights were off and it was pitch black.

As she walked more into the dark house, she wondered where her dad was.

"Dad? Are you here?" She called out, waiting for an answer.

When she got no answer, she flicked a light on, and when she did, everyone jumped out from behind the furniture, yelling surprise.

Her jaw dropped, she was stunned.

"What is going on?" She asked.

Nico walked to her and smiled, "We are throwing you a birthday party." She told her as she grabbed her hand and dragged her upstairs.

When they got to Indiana's room, Storm was waiting there. There was a short black square top dress with puffy sleeves sitting on the bed, along with a purple sash and crown that both said 'birthday girl'.

"We bought you this dress, we hope you like it. It goes really well with the sash and crown." Storm said with a big grin on her face.

"We don't have that much time, hurry and change, then I will do your hair!" Nico told Indiana, who was still confused as can be.

"Hold on, why are you throwing me a party? I told you guys I wasn't doing anything." She said with a stern face.

Storm and Nico looked at each other, then Storm spoke, "We couldn't let you skip your birthday. You need to be celebrated!"

Indiana looked at them with a confused face, so many thoughts were racing through her head. She didn't know what to say.

"Wait, so you planned all of this in a week?" She asked.

The two girls in front of her nodded.

Indiana couldn't stop herself from smiling. One part of her was mad at them for throwing a party after she said she didn't want to do anything, but the other part was happy that they cared for her enough to do this.

"Thank you."

After Indiana put on the dress and Nico curled her hair, she walked downstairs with them.

All the guests were standing around and talking to each other. There were so many people there. The Last Of Us cast and crew were there, along with the cast of The Fosters and Teen Beach Movie.

Indiana gasped when she saw Isaak walking towards her with a green birthday cake that said 'Happy 20th birthday'. Everyone started singing happy birthday to Indiana, all she could do was smile.

When they were finished singing Indiana started making her rounds, she said hello to everyone and thanked them for coming.

When she was finished with that, she went onto the dance floor that Nico and Storm had made, dancing with all her friends around her.

Indiana started to wonder where Pedro was, she didn't see him in her house, so she ended up assuming he wasn't there.

That was until Isaak interrupted Indiana on the dance floor and handed her a note.

Indy, meet me in your room.

Indiana looked up at Isaak with a confused face. She didn't need to ask who the note was from because there was only one person that called her Indy.

She excused herself and went up to her room.

When she opened the door, she saw Pedro standing at the foot of the bed with a small red velvet box in his hands.
